Why Should I Replace
My Lead Pipes?
The water flowing through lead pipes picks up lead particles which are then ingested. Lead can be harmful to your body, and levels can build up over time.
​
Pregnant women and children, especially those up to 6 years old, are most at risk, as even low levels of exposure in Children have been linked to damage to the nervous system, learning disabilities, shorter stature, impaired hearing, and impaired formation and function of blood cells.
​
Replacing lead pipes not only removes the health risks, but can also improve flow and pressure, and means overall cleaner drinking water.

What to Look For When Your Water Mains Need Repairing:
It goes without saying that it’s important to stay on top of any repairs and maintenance necessary in your home; particularly where it comes to water mains. With regular inspection, you can spot any problems before they become more serious, as well as saving money along the way!
​
But what should you be looking out for when it comes to repairing your water mains? Read on for some tips from the experts at DHC Utilities.
​
Leaks & Dampness
One of the first signs that there could be an issue with one of your water mains is if any leaks or damp patches start appearing around the property. Make sure you keep an eye out for these kinds of tell-tale signs and take action straight away if you notice them. While it may just be a small drip, left unchecked this could lead to further damage such as weakened foundations and costly repairs in the future.
​
Strange Smells
Strange odours coming from drains or leaking pipes can often indicate a problem with your water mains that needs attention – particularly if they’re accompanied by mould growth or stagnant water seeping into the property.
If you suspect there may be something wrong, reach out to a professional team like those at DHC Utilities immediately; they will have all the skills and equipment required to identify and rectify whatever issue may be present within your water main system.
​
Rusty Pipes
Rusty pipes are not only unsightly but also tend to be much less effective than other materials over time; leading to decreased pressure in taps and showers, amongst other things.
​
If you start seeing discolouration on pipework or fixtures throughout your home then make sure you book an inspection as soon as possible so that experienced professionals can assess what needs repairing and replace any parts that need replacing in order to keep flows running smoothly through your plumbing network.
Water mains are integral components of our homes which means it’s essential we keep an eye on their condition at all times.
​
Spotting issues before they worsen is key to preserving both safety and savings; so take note of any strange occurrences noted above, contact qualified experts like those at DHC Utilities when needed, and enjoy continuous hassle free plumbing performance!
